The article is devoted to the analysis of the evaluation of scientific data within the scientific activity of a modern scientist in the scientific and educational community. Reviewing, being a part of the researcher’s publication culture, becomes one of the key elements of the scientist’s professional culture. The purpose of the article is to study the current state and future prospects of applying various approaches to evaluating data that meet the specific requirements of research work while observing all the criteria of the professional culture of scientists. The research methodology is based on compliance with the principles of FAIR, which have an impact on increasing the scientific significance and reliability of data, while methods are proposed to improve the assessment process and the importance of introducing data assessment into the quality control system of scientific research is emphasized, which helps to strengthen confidence in data among scientists. The results of the work revealed the expediency of including the review of research data in a system-wide quality control mechanism in science and offers recommendations for organizing effective review processes in data repositories that confirm the quality of the publication culture of scientists. The perspective of the research is to establish a correlation between the data provided by the research conducted by modern scientists and open methods of reviewing their works. This is a promising direction to increase openness and integrity in the scientific work of scientists in order to evaluate and maintain their professional culture.

Keywords: professional culture, scientific data review, FAIR principles, data management, open science, quality of research data, data repositories, open review, crowd review
